Thomas Alexander is an English artist, born in Leicester, who took a great interest in ancient and medieval history from an early age. His work is a unique blend of detailed figure drawings and technical architectural studies. Initially starting as a self-taught artist, he took on various portrait commissions before seeking proper tuition in the classical arts. His art journey took him to Florence, Italy, where he studied the oil painting techniques of the Old Masters for a brief time, and then later sought tuition from Russian academic drawing instructors who provided him with the techniques to draw constructively.
His current project is the grand mural dedicated to the Polish Winged Hussars, which is displayed at the Polish Club Milton, Brisbane.
